Konkai-ji Dai-mon (Great Gate of Konkai-ji)

岩出市根来

The head temple of the Shingi Shingon sect, located in Iwade City, Wakayama Prefecture. It is a historic temple that includes Important Cultural Properties and sites designated as National Historic Sites and Places of Scenic Beauty.

History

The temple's origins trace back to the late Heian period, when the monk Kakuan established the Kodengoin on Mount Koya. It later became the current base when the temple registration of the Daitengoin was transferred to Konkai-ji. By the late Muromachi period, it had developed into a major religious city housing a corps of monk-soldiers, but it was burned down during Toyotomi Hideyoshi's campaign against Kii Province.
